Many call it the best novel in the English language, Tom Jones gives us a panoramic view of England in the middle of the 18th century. The hero is handsome, energetic, and manly. He is credulous, impulsive, and imprudent, but he is honorable and, above all, generous. The canvas is crowded with lively individuals and there's not a "type" in the lot.
